probably good for life. This is the latest incarnation of brake fluid that
most GA aircraft use, and is less flammable. MIL-PRF-83282D is compatible
with the previous fluid, MIL-PRF-5606H, which Aircraft Spruce still sells.
None of the DOT (3,4,5) fluids are compatible unless you change the o-rings
in the caliper to match them.
